Regardless of where you encounter it, the Serpent's breath attack can deal heavy damage if you aren't prepared. Generally speaking though, preparation for each branch of Hell will make it much less dangerous. It isn't terribly durable, and only the Gehenna and Cocytus versions have any elemental resistances, so most forms of dealing damage quickly should work fine here. The Cocytus version is probably the least dangerous, as it is the only version whose breath attacks can both be resisted. Be very careful of the Tartarus version if you are living; miasma will [[slow]] you and [[rot]] your [[HP]] even if you are poison resistant.

Gehenna: A huge red glowing dragon, burning with hellfire. It seems to be possessed by the very essence of Gehenna and its eternal fire.

Cocytus: You can barely move through the hellish cold that's freezing your soul. It emanates from this massive white dragon. Your eyes hurt from the temperature, and from the gleam of shards of ice covering the demonic beast.

Tartarus: A pair of lurid magenta eyes hang in the darkness before you. You can just barely trace the outline of a vast, sinuous dragon. Its malice for you is palpable.

Dis: A huge metallic dragon, glowing with power.

Tips & Tricks

Regardless of where you encounter it, the Serpent's breath attack can deal heavy damage if you aren't prepared. Generally speaking though, preparation for each branch of Hell will make it much less dangerous. It isn't terribly durable, and only the Gehenna and Cocytus versions have any elemental resistances, so most forms of dealing damage quickly should work fine here. The Cocytus version is probably the least dangerous, as it is the only version whose breath attacks can both be resisted. Be very careful of the Tartarus version if you are living; miasma will slow you and rot your HP even if you are poison resistant.
